“Mahal ko kayo!” she declared, as she lights up the stage with a dazzling set of performances, leaving Manila with a night to remember.
BLACKPINK’s JISOO lit up the stage in Manila on March 14, 2025, as she headlined her very first fan meeting tour, ‘LIGHTS, LOVE, ACTION’, at the iconic Smart Araneta Coliseum. More than just a gathering, the event was a dazzling fusion of music, cinematic charm, and heartfelt moments shared between JISOO and her devoted Filipino BLINKs (BLACKPINK fans).
JISOO lighten the mood of the Manila crowd with some reminders to enjoy the show as if we’re gonna watch a movie. JISOO made her grand entrance in a dazzling dress, sending the entire Smart Araneta Coliseum into an eruption of cheers. Wasting no time, she kicked off the show with a powerful performance of ‘earthquake’, igniting the stage with her presence. JISOO admitted feeling nervous as she stepped onto the stage, a sentiment made clear when host Jessica Lee asked how she felt about performing in front of the Manila crowd once again. Despite that, her excitement shone through, and the overwhelming cheers from Filipino BLINKs quickly turned her nerves into pure joy.
Turning up the LIGHTS, BLINKs got to know more about JISOO through a Q&A session. Among the four tracks on her ‘Amortage’ album, ‘Your Love’ holds a special place in JISOO’s heart, as it evokes deep emotions every time she sings it. As for food recommendations, she highly suggests Korean pancakes. And when asked to describe her personality in just three words? “Tough, cute, and cool”. JISOO poured her LOVE into a special moment for her fans as she carefully decorated an album frame, adding heartfelt details and charming personal touches. She also signed a polaroid photo of her saying, ‘Mahal Kita’ using a purple marker as it is her favorite color.
With the LIGHTS shining bright and LOVE filling the coliseum, it was time for some ACTION—fun games and lively moments with JISOO! She learned new Tagalog words like “Mahal kita/Mahal ko kayo (I love you)”, “Masaya ba kayo? (Are you happy?)”, and “Charot (Just kidding)”. JISOO brought her A-game as she eagerly guessed words acted out by her fans in the crowd, showcasing her playful and competitive spirit.
JISOO performed her songs from the album including ‘Your Love’, ‘Tears’, and ‘Hugs & Kisses’. But what’s more exciting is when JISOO performed her hit track ‘FLOWER’ and surprised the whole coliseum roaming around the VIP section of the venue while singing ‘All Eyes On Me’. She thanked everyone who joined her and watch her first fan meeting show saying,
It’s been a while since I last came back here in Manila and actually, it’s my first solo fan meeting. As I arrived, I saw a lot of banners and tarpaulins, it really made me happy and welcomed. I was actually very much looking forward to it but also worry. I just really wanna tell you how much happy I am spending time with the BLINKs. Thank you. Mahal ko kayo!
